Solitude Flies Translucent Emerger
The Solitude Flies Translucent Emerger makes an excellent caddis emerger, with a deer hair wing and translucent dubbed body that perfectly imitate a partially emerged insect stuck in the surface film. This fly is especially effective when fish are feeding just under the surface but won’t rise to a caddis dry. To fish this fly as a cripple, dab some floatant on the wing and lightly twitch to mimic a struggling caddis. Drop this behind a dry fly to double your chances, or swing through current.

Madeleine Howard –
This emergent fly worked well in a slow current. I used it after a dry fly and saw a few trout take it. The translucent body looked natural and the deer hair wing moved well in the water.
Hannah Butler –
Great for when fish are feeding just below the surface. I found it effective during a morning session when the water was calm and fish were reluctant to rise.

The fly mimics a real caddis perfectly. I used it as a cripple with floatant and got a solid strike. It’s a reliable addition to my fly box.
